"Guide to Expanding Your Farm in Fields of Mistria"

In *Fields of Mistria*, expanding your farm is crucial to accommodate more crops and animals. The farm expansion feature, introduced in the game’s v0.13.0 update, significantly increases your farm's space by extending it across the river to the right, offering new areas for structures and crop cultivation. Here’s a detailed guide on how to unlock and build this expansion.

How to Unlock Farm Expansion in Fields of Mistria

To unlock the farm expansion, head to the **Carpenter’s Shop** located in the Eastern Road area. You can purchase the expansion as early as your first year in Mistria, but it comes with substantial prerequisites. First, you need to help the town achieve **Rank 55** by accumulating enough Renown points. Additionally, you must complete the Stone Refinery repair quest, which also requires reaching Town Rank 55. These requirements are interconnected, ensuring a progressive gameplay experience.

Once you meet these initial criteria, the next step is gathering the necessary materials for the expansion. This is a significant investment, so be prepared for a substantial effort.

How to Build Farm Expansion in Fields of Mistria

Visit the Carpenter’s Shop on the Eastern Road, northeast of Mistria’s town center. From the shop’s menu, select ‘Farm Expansion’ to view the requirements. You'll need:

• **40,000 Tesserae** - This monetary cost will take time to gather. Utilize farming, mining, fishing, and museum contributions to accumulate this amount.
• **50 x Refined Stone** - To obtain this, you must first repair the **Stone Refinery**, which requires reaching Town Rank 55 and repairing the Inn beforehand.
• **50 x Hard Wood** - This is the easiest material to gather. With a **Copper Axe**, you can harvest Hard Wood from large tree stumps on your farm and beyond, yielding 2 x Hard Wood per stump. You can also find this at **Balor’s Cart** on certain days or by contributing to the Museum.

Once you’ve gathered all the materials and funds, return to the Carpenter’s Shop and purchase the expansion. This will extend your farm eastward across the river, complete with a bridge for easy access.
